This is an except from last years increase in benefits notification letter , which also exceeded the annual tax threshold £12,570

It must be just me then.. Currently my State Pension pays out £1,068.40 every 4 weeks or £13,892pa The tax threshold is fixed at £12,570pa , therefore I am liable for 20% of the difference in tax approx. £264 If I have other income , then that is taxed at the prescribed rates according to the amount earned + that £264 is deducted spread over the course of the financial year. Alternatively , if there is no other income earned apart from the State pension , then the amount is held as a debt. It is not clear yet as to how or if collection of that debt will be enforced.

The Government spokesperson conveniently fails to mention that the triple lock annual increases are , for a growing number of recipients taxed at 20%.

Was this an organised event? , the reason I ask is because the normal triathlon/ironman schedule is swim/T1/bike/T2/run , also the distances are kind of hybrid between tri and ironman , longer than tri , but shorter than ironman , perhaps a private or group training for an upcoming ironman..

My first full marathon was Khon Kaen , Jan. 2011 , I was 58 years old at the time and my body said the same thing,. but my head over-ruled it and I signed up for 4 more that year namely Rome , Paris , Edinburgh and Singapore and also the Great North Run , as they say "there's no fool like an old fool". Still running marathons at 72 , planning on doing Sydney , Cape Town and Beijing next...🏃‍♂️

Shaving gear past & present. When I first arrived in Thailand I brought over with me this MERKUR safety razor which I purchased in Jermyn St. London early eighties , but getting blades for it became a PITA and I changed to these 5 blade disposable 3-packs from Aeon in Japan about 5 years ago. I usually bring over 4 packs which last at least 1 year..

Why on earth didn’t they take him to the correct hospital to begin with (that seems to happen here often) and it seems that they do not know his blood type (no medical records kept or available) , so they will just transfuse him with whatever comes through the door first , providing of course that is red..

Just been shopping in Makro. Cheese has always been a bit pricey, but now with aro vintage cheddar at 198bht for 500gm How would you rate that for strength on a scale of 1 to 5 , 1 being almost tasteless and 5 being strong as Stilton. Going to Makro on Wednesday , so may pick some up. Also , do they come in 1kg size blocks? Thanks for posting this..

It has just been recently reported that the victim had been romantically involved with 7 different men at the time of her demise, with one of them providing a monthly stipend of 13,500baht … she played with fire and suffered the consequences deservedly or not..

Yes and more than a few on here do just that…
